I've used the ADDRESS TSO surrogate for some of this, even to run non-interactive ISPF LM. (PITA to allocate required data sets.) <https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.1.0?topic=processing-tso-command-environment> On Tue, 4 Jan 2022 19:29:27 +0000, Seymour J Metz wrote: > ... >I would expect IBM to functionally stabilize EXECIO unless there is something >that it does better than stream I/O. > How might stream I/O deal with RECFM=V binary files, particularly containing '15'x among the data? Many programmers insist on the superior performance of EXECIO * over EXECIO 1 in a loop probably due to CALL/RETURN overhead. linein() in a loop might suffer similarly. ADDRESS SDSF API provides generated DD NAMEs for spool files. I've used these overriding IEBGENER SYSUT1. I could imagine overriding SYSUT2 with a pipe which could be read by linein(). Spool access from available parts.
